"We're honored to create a figure for Vice President Harris and reflect this significant moment in U.S. history for guests inside Madame Tussauds," museum spokeswoman Brittany Williams announced in a statement, according to WNBC-TV of New York.
Harris grew to be the first woman, Black or Asian person to serve as an American vice president when she was sworn in Jan. 20.
Madame Tussauds always makes a presidential wax figure though the honor has never been given to the person a heartbeat away from the office.
The statement came as Harris and President Biden are regarding the administration’s first 100 days in office. The museum is further working on a Biden figure.
